I have a version of Ruby + ruby vim 7.2 (you are also trying with 7.3 and a custom compiled version), but I only get omnicomplete (ctrl-x ctrl-o) to work in certain cases.
For example, if I have
class MegaGreeter attr_accessor :names def initialize(names = "world") @names = names if @names.nil? puts "hello #{@names}.each" end end end
omnicomplete works for .each , but not for .nil . In addition, it will not automatically populate the attr_ keywords.
I tried this when I disabled all my plugins, again with all enabled. I tried this also with vim-ruby plugin. The plugins I installed are AfterColors, CSApprox, surround, color_sample_pack, mimicpak, taglist.
I have the following section in my .vimrc (I can post all .vimrc if necessary). I also use VIM for C ++, JavaScript, and about 1/2 a dozen other languages, so for some of them there is also omnicomplete stuff:

So, is there a way to get full Ruby support in omnicomplete, if so, how? Or, is this what omnicomplete has to offer for Ruby?
